Designer Crash When Trying to Create Seamless Pattern w/ Symbols

[SF1]

Good afternoon,

I've just had designer crash/immediately close on its own while trying to follow an online tutorial to make a seamless pattern utilizing the symbols function. For five times in a row now, I've gone to move the small black rectangle/resize it to fit inside/snap to the edges of the red square, and upon each attempt to resize the program has immediately closed itself with no warning. 

 

Please advise?

 

Thanks,

This is working fine for me in the 1.7.2 Mac version of Designer. Are you using the Mac or Windows version?

Hi @SF1,

I have tested this on the Windows version and it works correctly for me, can you please provide more information on the computer that you are using.

On further testing, I found it only did this when I used my wacom intuos pro--once I switched to both mouse and also just the general touch function, the problem/crash/close no longer happened. 

It would seem it's something to do with how the Affinity apps work with the wacom pen tablet, as I've tested the wacom functionality with several other apps (including inkscape and gimp, for example) and everything functions perfectly within the other apps--no crashes, no lag/delay...

I've seen elsewhere in the forums that others have noticed issues with using wacom tablets with Affinity--I do hope it's sorted out soon.
